Preparing the "Baby Jesus and Light" Coloring Page

Preparation of this craft involves a few simple steps. First, print out the coloring page which, in most cases, includes an illustration of the nativity scene. Then, provide your children with their favorite colors of pencil, markers, or crayons to fill in the scene.

Once the coloring is complete, carefully cut out the Baby Jesus figure, the manger, and any glowing elements like stars or angels. Then, place a piece of tissue or cellophane under the colored figure. Secure it with craft glue at the base of the manger, so the figure appears to be glowing from within. This gives a beautiful, ethereal effect, bringing the nativity scene to life.
